Remembering Challenger

I only had five years under my belt when the Challenger exploded, but I remember that day. I remember something big...and bad had happened in the world.

An eternity practicing, waiting, jabbering, anxiety, nervousness and only 73 seconds of glory.

Here´s to you Mike, Ellison, Judy, Ron, Greg Krista, and Dick .......for following your dreams.


We will never forget them, nor the last time we saw them, this morning, as they prepared for their journey and waved good-bye and 'slipped the surly bonds of Earth' to 'touch the face of God.
-- President Ronald Reagan after the Challenger disaster
